Title: | The relation of unrest-related distress with probable depression during and after widespread civil unrest | Authors: | Tao, TJ Li, TW Yim, SSW Hou, WK |
Issue Date: | 2022 | Source: | Global mental health, 2022, v. 9, p. 322-327 | Abstract: | Background: This study investigated whether subjective unrest-related distress was associated with probable depression during and after the 2019 anti-ELAB movement in Hong Kong. Methods:Population-representative data were collected from 7157 Hong Kong Chinese in four cross-sectional surveys (July 2019–July 2020). Logistic regression examined the association between subjective unrest-related distress and probable depression (PHQ-9 ⩾ 10), stratified by the number of conflicts/protests across the four timepoints. Results: Unrest-related distress was positively associated with probable depression across different numbers of conflicts/protests. Conclusion: Unrest-related distress is a core indicator of probable depression. Public health interventions should target at resolving the distress during seemingly peaceful period after unrest. |
